James 5
1 Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.
No mihau te, tu in hongpai tavun, note tung ah hong theng tu haksatna te hang in kap in tau vun.
2 Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.
Na hauna te muatcip siat a, taciang nik le puan te zong nget in ne siat zo hi.
3 Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be for a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up your treasure in the last days.
Na kham le ngun uh te eakseau in ne hi; taciang a eakseau te sia note hong langpan tu tetti hi tu a, na pumpi uh zong mei kang bang in hong ne tu hi. Na neisa uh sia ni tawpkhak ni atu a khol na hi uh hi.
4 Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies.
En vun, na lo uh ah tang at tu in na sap uh naseam te thaman pia ngawl in, suttol na hi uhkom in, amate kaana aw sia Jehovah Sabaoth bil sung ah tum zo hi.
5 You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
Leitung sia lungkimtak le na uk uh bangpo in na nungta zo uh hi; taciang a ki ngo tu ngan bang in, na thinsung uh te na vak phitphet zo uh hi.
6 You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He does not resist you.
Note in a thutang te puavawk in na that uh hi; taciang amate in hong nalh ngawl hi.
7 Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.
Tua ahikom suapui te awng, Topa hongpai dong thinsau in om tavun. En vun, lotho pa in khuapi ngua le khua nung ngua a thetdong thinsautak in leitang i a manpha thingnga te ngak hi.
8 You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
Note zong Topa hongpai tu nai zo ahikom in thinkhotak in ngak tavun.
9 Do not grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you will not be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
Suapui te awng, mawsiatna na thuak ngawl natu uh in, khat le khat ki phunsan heak vun: en vun, thukhen pa sia kongbiang mai ah ding zo hi.
10 Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
Ka suapui te awng, Topa min taw thuhil kamsang te haksatna a thuakna uh le a thinsauna sia ette in nei taun.
11 Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
En vun, a thuakzo te thuphatoai a hihi, ci i ngaisun hi. Job i thuakna na za zo uh hi, taciang Topa sia a tawpna ah hong lainat le thinneamtak in hong hesuak pa a hihi, ci sia na mu zo uh hi.
12 But above all things, my brothers, do not swear—not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you do not fall into hypocrisy.
Ahihang ka suapui te awng, na theampo i tung ah, vantung sam in ahizong, leitung sam in ahizong, a dang thu kiciam na khatpo taw zong kiciam heak vun: ahihang “hi” na ci uh sia “hi”; “hi ngawl” na ci uh sia “hi ngawl”, ma hi ta hen; tabang a hibale mawsiatna sung ah na taksuk tu uh hi.
13 Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.
Note sung ah haksatna a thuak na om uh ziam? thungen tahen. A thin nuam a om ziam? Psalm la te sa tahen.
14 Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;
Note sung ah cina na om uh ziam? pawlpi i upa te sam tahen; taciang thungetsak hen a, Topa min taw sathau zut tahen:
15 and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
Taciang upna i thungetna in cina sia ngum tu hi, taciang Topa in cina sia damsak tu a; mawna te a vawt a hi tazong, maisak tu hi.
16 Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.
Na khialna uh te khat le khat tung ah ki pualak vun, taciang thu ki ngetsak vun, tabang in na dam tu uh hi. A thutang pa thinsung tak taw thungetna sia vanglian mama a, na tampi seam thei hi.
17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.
Elijah sia eite bangma in mihing hi napi ngua zuk ngawl natu in hanciam in thu a nget ciang, kum thum le tha luk sung ngua zu ngawl hi.
18 He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
Taciang thu a ngetkik ciang in, van pan ngua zu a, leitang in nga le te piangsak kik hi.
19 Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,
Suapui te awng, note sung ah khatpo in thuman pan in pial a, khatpo in a kaizawn ahile;
20 let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
Tua mawnei sia a khial na lampi pan a kaizawn kik peuma in a thaa thina pan ngum a, mawna tampi sealsak tu hi, ci phawk tahen.
